I purchased an HP Touchpad keyboard for HP Touchpad, but was wondering if anyone had any success making this work for the Acer A500 as well?
The Acer does not seem to be able to find this keyboard, whereas Windows can find it perfectly well.
Any thoughts? Patch needed? Or is it Honeycomb?
works fine with my Iconia.....did you remember to switch it on?

I am not sure if it will work. Yesterday I used a similar wireless keyboard and it worked but it was a different brand.
I seen a nice small keyboard at best buy and for a mouse i use my handy smandy logitech trackball......;-}
That will most likely work.but there are some android keyboards out there with function buttons for android.I have a solidtek mini keyboard with track pad like on notebook. It works very well and solid built spill resistant.with 3.1 mouse works as well its Bluetooth as well.good Luck

I am using a USB hub on my Iconia to connect the keyboard folio case listed on Amazon for the Iconia and a USB mouse, and it works flawlessly. It turns my Iconia into a netbook!
do the touchpads work such as this one

I don't think so, it says it uses a USB receiver, so it would need software to activate that receiver. Best is to stick with a Bluetooth keyboard. With Bluetooth, you don't need a USB Dongle/Receiver. I'm using a Bluetooth Motorola Xoom Keyboard with my Acer A500, works fine. A couple things dont work on it, like mute and the Music shortcut, but that can be livable. Acer has a BT Keyboard, that I might think of getting if it's cheaper off Ebay.

I think it will work just fine I have a cheep USB keyboard and mouse that use there own USB reciever.the touch pad is nothing more then a mouse.I also have a keyboard with built in touchpad solidtek brand Bluetooth it works well also
Finally wireless mouse and keyboard ZYMM (2.4GHz dongle) not bluetooth work within the Iconia a500 android 3.1 kernel 2.6.36.3
the module is hid-sunplus.ko
i can build other kernel modules if you want

In my case, I have tried with a normal mouse, that works perfectly! nonetheless I have not yet tried with a BT mouse, since I don't find the adapter for PS2 to USB
If I find it, I will try again and put the result here.

can you make it for taboonay 2.0 with 3.2 ???
My full stock OS3.1 Iconia works great with either my logitech 2.4ghz mouse with the mini dongle and my Razer Orochi in both BTooth and wired modes. Maybe I'm missing what the OP is asking, but it seems the Iconia works with many if not all popular brands/models of mice and keyboards.
Hello,
Can you please explain how install or make hi-sunplus.ko driver for taboonay 2.0 ? (noobs inside ...)
Thanks !
Running the latest version of virtuous xoom 1.1.2, android 3.2. bought the acer bluetooth iconia keybaord, and it connects, but i get no responses from the tablet. it thinks its connected, but nothing happens when i hammer on the keys. any ideas?
I am int he market for a bluetooth mouse and keyboard that will be compatable with the acer a500 but I don't want to break the bank. Can someone recommend a BT keyboard and mouse? If there are any bundle deals out there that would work with the a500 then I'm all for it.
BT keyboard and mouse
I found that the Logitech keyboard for my ps3 works great with no setup. Even the built in mousepad works great and I think I paid $50 for it last year. It even works on my Mac mini.
Best deal and nice feel since it is right and full size..
Hope that helps.

Thanks for the reply . I ended up getting the logitec tablet keyboard for android and Microsoft bluetooth notebook mouse 5000. They work great together and look good too .
Feels like im on a laptop lol.
